You Can

Original and similar lyrics

Mmmmm....
Take me where I've never been,
Help me on my feet again.
Show me that good things come to those who wait.
Tell me I'm not on my own.
Tell me I won't be alone.
Tell me what I'm feelin' isn't some mistake.
'cause if anyone can make me fall in love,
You can.
Save me from myself, you can.
And it's you and no one else.
If I could wish upon tomorrow,
Tonight would never end.
If you asked me, I would follow.
But for now, I just pretend.
'cause if anyone can make me fall in love,
You can.
Baby, when you look at me,
Tell me, what do you see?
Are these the eyes of someone you could love?
'Cause everything that brought me here,
Well, now it all seems so clear.
Baby, you're the one that I've been dreamin' of.
'cause if anyone can make me fall in love,
You can.
Save me from myself, you can.
And it's you and no one else.
If I could wish upon tomorrow,
Tonight would never end.
If you asked me, I would follow.
But for now, I just pretend.
'cause if anyone can make me fall in love...
Only you can take me sailin' in your deepest eyes.
Bring me to my knees and make me cry.
And no one's ever done this,
Everything was just a lie.
And I know, yes I know...
This is where it all begins,
So tell me it'll never end.
I can't fool myself,
It's you and no one else.
If I could wish upon tomorrow,
Tonight would never end.
If you asked me, I would follow.
But for now, I just pretend.
Cause if anyone can make me fall in love,
You can.
Show me that good things come to those who wait

(Ferry/Manzanera)
There's that melody again
Burning through my head it does me in
Turns me right around to my old friend
Wonder how you've changed, are you still
Running wild - like you do
When all you dreams come true
Happy days you pretend
That your love will never end
There's that melody again
Where it's coming from I must have been
Drifting out of time, now I'm in
Underneath you'll find I'm just the same
Running wild - like you do
When all your dreams fall through
I can always pretend
That I'll fall in love again
Running wild - like we do
If only dream came true
I could even pretend
That I'll fall in love again

Turning towards a time so free
Justice has finally escaped
The dripping words of yesterday
Set my feeble mind astray
I yearn to see
The glow of her eyes as I appear
A sign of satisfaction
Could be the sweetest sound
The staircase has one too many steps
I've already started back down
Come on
I love the caterpillars
Munching on the leaves
Pitter patter
Makes me forget my disease
Bugs have feelers just like me
And I'm feelin' oh so lonely
Disturbed in every sense of grace
The lady wouldn't give me a taste
Of the joy that means that much
It lives within her touch
Why won't you be my friend
I would love to hold you tonight
Even if we just pretend
Why won't you be my friend
Why
Why won't you be my friend
I would love to hold you tonight
Even if we just pretend
Why won't you be my friend
Be my friend
I'd love to meet the one
Who broke my heart
I know she'd melt me with her dance
Her subtle colors, her sweet smile
But it's a shame
She'll never get that chance

All in love is fair
Young and free, so easy to care, without pain
We can laugh and we can cry
We can have it all without askin' why, without chains
But there comes a time when you feel so unsure, girl
But that could be more
What if we fall in love (tonight)
What if we fall in love
What if we fall in love, ooh
When I'm feelin' all alone
Those times when love turns out all wrong, you'll be there
And when you needed me you knew, we were friends
And friends will always come through, cause they care
And in our hearts, and in our own ways
We are the same, we both were afraid
What if we fall in love (tonight)
What if we fall in love
What if we fall in love
But there comes a time when you feel so unsure, yeah
That could be more
What if we fall in love (tonight)
Love is easier for some
In and out, they love on the run, without care
Should they break a heart or two
It's just a game, so easy to do, so unfair
But there comes a time when you feel so unsure, girl
But that could be more
What if we fall in love (tonight)
What if we fall in love
What if we fall in love
What if we fall in love
What if we fall in love

Let's pretend baby
that you've just met me
And I've never seen you before
I'll tell all my friends
That I think you're starin'
And you say the same to yours
And oh, we'll dance around it all night
And then I'll follow you outside
And try to open up my mouth
And nothing comes out right
And I wanna fall in love with you again
I don't have to try, it's so easy
Who needs to pretend?
But because it's so funny
Let's just think about it honey
Let's just fall in love again
I'll call you in three days
Not too soon, not too late
And I'll ask your roommate if you're home
You'll call me on Thursday
And we'll hang out all day
Then fall asleep on the phone
And oh, I'll hold your hand when we drive
And we'll lose track of all the time
And we'll tell everyone that
We ain't never felt so alive
And I wanna fall in love with you again
I don't have to try, it's so easy
Who needs to pretend?
But because it's so funny
Let's just think about it honey
Let's just fall in love again
We'll fall disgustingly fast
And we'll stop hanging out with friends
And they'll be so offended
And I wanna fall in love with you again
I don't have to try, it's so easy
Who needs to pretend?
But because it's so funny
Let's just think about it honey
Let's just fall in love again
Let's just fall in love again
So let's just fall in love again

I get a feeling
I can't explain
Whenever your eyes meet mine
My heart spins in circles
And I lose all space and time
And now that we're standing face to face
Somethin' tells me
It's gonna be okay
And I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Ready to hold my heart open wide
I can't promise forever but baby I'll try
Yes, I'm ready to fall in love tonight
I know you've been watching
Choosin' your moment
I've been dreaming of that day
No one before you has gotten to me this way
And now that we're standing face to face
There's something that I need to say
And I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Ready to hold my heart open wide
I can't promise forever but baby I'll try
Yes, I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Nothing is certain, this I know
Wherever we're headed I'm ready to go
I can't promise forever but baby I'll try
Yes I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Yes I'm ready to fall in love tonight
Yes, I'm ready to fall in love tonight
